This aircraft is an updated “import substitution” version of the current Sukhoi Superjet 100, with instruments and devices developed by the Ulyanovsk Instrument Design Bureau.
All instruments that pilots will see in the cockpit are created in the office. These include onboard radio-electronic equipment, imaging systems, control panels and lighting equipment.
The current models of the Sukhoi Superjet 100 are 70% imported components, about a third of which are produced by the French company Safran.
The cost of developing imported-substituted components for the Sukhoi Superjet 100 is estimated at 50 billion rubles, excluding the cost of Russian-made engines.
Recall that earlier there was information that the airlines operating the Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft had a shortage of spare parts, such as spark plugs supplied from the United States.
